I'm on chapter 2 of Petzold's book and I'm kind of confused about something. Is the TCHAR declared in <tchar.h> related to, in any way, the TCHAR declared in <winnt.h>?
I'm assuming that they aren't and that you need <tchar.h> just to use functions like _stprintf() and _vstprintf() to use with regular console programs, right?
The TCHAR type is defined in one or the other depending on which one is included first. You really don't need to know the details, other than that a TCHAR is an ordinary char or a unicode character (when both _UNICODE and UNICODE are defined).I'm on chapter 2 of Petzold's book and I'm kind of confused about something.

These functions (strictly macros) are defined in <tchar.h>, so yes you need to include that file to use them.I'm assuming that they aren't and that you need <tchar.h> just to use functions like _stprintf() and _vstprintf() to use with regular console programs, right?
